2. Blend together flour, sugar, cornstarch and salt in a food processor until combined. Add half of butter to processor and blend to combine. Add
remaining butter, process to combine. With a quick pulse of the processor, mix in the chopped cherries.

5. While the cookies are still warm, cut into serving-sized squares. Allow to cool completely in pan, then transfer to serving tray.

Use Up that Old Halloween Candy
Christmas Cookie- Easy Recipe!

Actually, these easy, delicious Christmas cookies will send you to the store to buy even more candy! (Crazy, right?) This recipe uses miniature
Reese's peanut butter cups to make fancy-looking Christmas cookies in no time at all. Plus, if you use pre-packaged peanut butter cookie dough
from the store (instead of using the cookie dough recipe below), this cookie is a great one to make with the kids. They won't even complain
about using up their Halloween candy. Probably.

Tip: After placing the peanut butter cups in the cookies, pop them back in the oven for another 30 seconds or so the melt the chocolate
slightly. This will blur the crinkled-chocolate edges of the peanut butter cups, making the finished cookie look more like a real chocolate
tartlet.
